If the connection to the bus is lost while a method call is ongoing,
the method call does not get cancelled. Instead it just sits around
until it times out.
This is visible here on XO laptops when stopping the display manager
during shutdown. imsettings starts sending a sync message to give up
its bus name (via g_bus_unown_name()), then systemd terminates the
session bus at approximately the same time. imsettings then hangs for
about 20 seconds before timing out the message.

imsettings behaviour could be improved as described in that thread,
but I think this is a glib bug. I've also come up with the attached
patch which fixes it.
Credits for the bug-fix goes to Daniel Drake <dsd@laptop.org>. The test
case was written by David Zeuthen <zeuthen@gmail.com>.

Since it is valid for a D-Bus interface / service to add new methods,
signals or properties we must NEVER warn about unknown properties or
drop unknown signals or disallow unknown method invocations when we
have an expected interface.
So this means that the expected_interface machinery is only useful for
checking that the service didn't break ABI.
Also update the docs so it is clear exactly what it means to have an
expected interface.

g_file_make_directory_with_parents() will fail for already
existing directories, unlike g_mkdir_with_parents(), so mention
this clearly in the docs.

Presumably, the rationale for not storing the endianness is that
GVariant is a recursive type system, and in a sane format, endianness
only needs to be stored once per blob of data (once per D-Bus message,
once per file on disk, etc.).

Also include a shorter version in the docs for g_variant_store, with a
pointer to g_variant_get_data.

Previously, we took the default application for a particular mimetype
from the system and copied it into the user's configuration as the
default there.
Instead of doing that we leave the user's default unset, and at time of
use, if the user has no explicitly-set default value, we use the system
default.
This avoids complicated situations where inappropriate applications were
being set as the default in the user's configuration.

gio-2.0.pc's Libs.private was still using @LIBASYNCNS_LIBADD@, which
was no longer being substituted to anything and so broke "pkg-config
--static". Fix it to be @NETWORK_LIBS@ instead.

We ignore entries with mountpoint of "swap" and "ignore". Add "none" to
that list, since Debian uses it.
Probably we should move to using our already-existing internal list of
things to ignore, but this patch is more minimally intrusive for now.

Commit afa82ae805f9c8bb875a3f863a7b4669953f159f introduced a compilation
regression on BSD systems that use the sysctl(3) interface; we need to
declare the buffer len in _g_get_unix_mount_points()

Otherwise we might collide with an interface called Connection.

This is for the same reason that GDBusProxy has its properties

In registration_data_export_interface(), the object_path is obtained using:
object_path = g_dbus_object_get_object_path (G_DBUS_OBJECT (data->object));
But when exporting an object uniquely, the object_path is not assigned
to the GDBusObject until after all the interfaces are exported.
Therefore, registration_data_export_interface() is trying to export
the interface on the non-unique object path, which can lead to
run-time errors if an object already exists on that path.
Instead, registration_data_export_interface() should be passed the
object_path explicitly, as is done in
g_dbus_object_manager_server_export_unlocked().
